Ambiguous occurence error, despite use of DuplicateRecordFields (worked with ghc 8.10.7, not with 9.6.4)

Hi all,

I am currently migrating a Haskell project that uses ghc 8.10.7 to ghc
9.6.4.

Using the new version, I get errors like

~~~.haskell
Ambiguous occurrence ‘pos’
It could refer to

Previously, it was totally fine to have different data types each have a
field with the same name, as long as you used `DuplicateRecordFields`

I have searched the migration documentation but I couldn't find any clue on
why this has been changed or how to deal with it. I probably missed it.
Any help is mostly appreciated!

Thanks for reading
Cheers,
Han Joosten
